Can you imagine a Chief constable or a Commisioner holding a press conference and telling it as it is, like this guy from the SFPD - if only!!!!

Good on him.

Too right that the media are quick to point the finger, and this guy sounds like someone who should be running for governor. He backs his officers and points the blame where it should be.

I want a boss like that guy. Its nice to see a boss that will back his troops, not give them the shaft as soon as the going gets tough.

He's just a union rep, not a boss. Still a good speech tho'.
His name is Gary Delagnes, who is the SF Police Officers Association President.

seems the kinda guy who will stick by his officers. good to see

un-usual on this side of the water

An understatement there!!
